Chapter 221
Chapter 221: The deposed queen Wu
Yuan Zhi saw the deposed queen, with a pretty face and beautiful face... Her food, clothing and food are better than ordinary palace ladies. She should be said to be of a concubine level, and there are only a few people around her serving her.
Although the queen is abolished, Queen Mother Qian takes special care of her... This cold palace is especially suitable for sunbathing and leisure...
"Girl, you can't go out." The eunuch in charge of the palace seemed to be targeting Ji Yuanzhi. She couldn't leave this yard. Isn't this just putting herself under house arrest? A small sky... must be the one from Zhaode Palace... A bad feeling surged into Yuanzhi's heart. She was originally named Tang Meizhi and left her parents when she was eight years old. She was raised in his mansion by Hezhou chieftains. There were several girls who were raised in the mansion. She changed her surname to Li. She only knew her mission from the beginning and obeyed Mr. Li. Datengxia was defeated and Mr. Li surrendered, but he was not convinced... It was said that she was their captive, and the Han people were enemies of the Yao people... How could she get close to this emperor? Unless the emperor was confused...
"All this place will last forever..." Yuan Zhi stared blankly into the distance.
"What are you watching here?" There was a gentle voice behind it.
Yuanzhi saw her, a beautiful woman, Queen Wu.
"I..." Yuan Zhi was stunned.
"I know who you are, why they left you here... because someone likes you... and you can't be liked by him..."
"Who are you talking about?" Yuan Zhi took a step back, "Why did they leave me here?"
"You, because you offended a woman... You are very beautiful... women are all jealous." Queen Wu said.
"No, I came here by myself, no one forced me..." Yuan Zhi said.
"You are so stupid... how could a woman put a good woman here?" said Queen Wu, "I heard Eunuch Zhang of Qianqing Palace take care of the two doorkeepers..."
"I won't go to the emperor, I just want to find someone... at least I can bring a letter for me... Otherwise he will be anxious..." Yuan Zhi said, "I have no connection with the Imperial Concubine... I have never seen them."
"Looking for someone in the palace? It's hard... You're not here in the palace on the first day, there are tens of thousands of palace maids in the Ming Dynasty. Who knows where are you looking for?" Queen Wu said, "I'm not confined, but I can't see the emperor... I have no place to say anything wronged... I just saw him, and he never came to listen to me... He only has that old woman in his heart..."
This woman looked abnormal in her mood, and Yuan Zhi suddenly felt this...I heard that she was a deposed queen and was deposed in one month... It seemed pitiful... The poor person might have a feeling that he could not control his own destiny.
Whether it is the Yao people or the servants, they are barbarians in the eyes of the Han people. The Han people still look down on others after becoming emperors...
"Empress..." Yuan Zhi did not dare to underestimate her. She had a maid around her, which means she was different from ordinary palace maids. After all, she had been an empress...
"Don't call me Empress..." said Queen Wu, "I'd still like to hear people call me Miss. I'm just an unmarried girl... here... guarding the loneliness..."
Yuan Zhi looked at Queen Wu's thin face and nodded...
"It's pitiful..."
There are a few more people in this palace...
"Your Majesty... Why don't you want to appreciate the flowers?" Wan Zhen'er felt that Zhu Jianshen was not in a position to keep her eyes open. Appreciating the flowers was just an excuse to sneak out... It was indeed expected that he was a little lost for her...at least he could no longer review the memorials as before....
"I... these people think I am the clay Buddha in the temple. What's the use of my red pen?" He glared at Zhen'er, "Who are you standing on...Who told you to care about my business?"
"I am the emperor's person... Why do the emperor say this?" Zhen'er said, her expression calmly... "If the emperor is unhappy, he would not say it truthfully... there is no need to vent his anger through the government..."
"Can I really tell you directly?" Zhu Jianshen lost his pen. He looked really angry. He was not angry at ordinary times, and his temperament should be said to be extremely good. The evil people in the palace were naturally done by Concubine Wan... But it must be a big deal for him... Wan Zhen'er's face changed. He had been with Zhu Jianshen. Naturally, he knew his temper. She could not hide it from him anymore. She knelt down: "Your Majesty Ji is a spy from Yao people. I am for the safety of the emperor... Besides, Ji Yat Ji is safe, and no one will hurt her. Don't worry."
Zhu Jianshen walked back and forth... His not saying it doesn't mean it's okay... He has no intention of doing things...
"Your Majesty, do you want to take a rest first..."
"Zheng'er... I don't want you to be in front of me... I'm upset..." Zhu Jianshen said such words... Zhen'er was stunned, and she was not happy... The emperor never said such words to him.
"Why haven't you left..." The emperor was a little impatient.
"Empress, you might as well leave..." said the eunuch Huai'en, the eunuch who was in charge of seals... This is where the emperor handles state affairs. It is inconvenient for a female family to be here...
The war was not good... After the Ming army defeated Naduzhanman (安), the war was not good these days, and the young emperor suddenly lost his energy... Zhen'er actually thought that she was upset for a Ji girl... There are so many things that she has to worry about in the world, how could she understand the overall situation... Killing the heart... Shang Lu was talking about killing the heart. Their literati did not agree with killing the literati, especially the Minister of Rites surnamed Zhou. He spoke for them. Now the war was paused. Wouldn't it be laughed at by these people? This war still used a lot of people and money and food... Although the Ming Dynasty did not rely on military generals, it has always been a good trick to weigh civil officials in the future. Although the emperor is valuable, if he relies too much on one side, he will end up like his father. It is not that the way of being a king has never taught him.
Zhen'er doesn't seem to really understand... Is her mind very simple... No... She seems to have no interest in meddling in the other people's business outside after her son dies... Especially the kind among court officials... She only likes to catch the things around her... She becomes nagging...
"Emperor, if you are upset when you see the concubine, you can find another place to relax. I heard that the Queen Mother's side is playing the show today. Maybe you can meet the person you want to meet..." Huaien said. He didn't want to participate in the matter in the harem, but the two Queen Mothers were nagging all day long and were worried about the royal heir... They should not ignore it. If the emperor could go to other concubines, wouldn't it be a good thing?
Zhu Jianshen was thinking about Ji Yuanzhi, where was this girl hidden? Is it the Hongshou Palace where the empress dowager was raising her? As long as there was a hope, I wanted to see her, even if I took a look from a distance, I knew that she was safe... After all, I couldn't believe the words of Zhen'er. I saw the jealousy between this woman. My father and the emperor were more than three wives and four concubines. They were full of various struggles. I was annoyed and didn't want to learn from my father... I just wanted to love one person, just like my grandfather... It was just that the human heart was not enough. When I saw the female Shi Ji girl, my thoughts were aroused again...
"I... can't see...beauty...beauty...zhen...will Zhen'er be angry?"
"The Imperial Concubine dared not be angry with the emperor... She just couldn't figure it out for a moment..." Huaien said, "Emperor, there are three thousand beauties in the harem, so she should naturally be a little arrogant..."
"I...I...I think this is not good...Zhen'er...I'll be really angry...I just ignored her...If she ignored me...I'll be uneasy..."
"Your Majesty... You are really considerate of the Imperial Concubine... You go to the Empress Dowager's harem... You should have... I think the Imperial Concubine will not have any objections... Don't worry..." Huaien said.
